Many Christian denominations teach that Paul writes the law was “done away with”. However understanding the letters attributed to Paul don’t describe abandoning the law, instead the writer is illustrating how to apply the Creator’s instructions to the lives of the people to whom his letters were sent. In 1 Corinthians 5:1 —2 Paul writes about the immorality of incest which directly cross references to Leviticus 18:8, “You must not have sexual relations with your father’s wife; it would dishonor your father.” And Leviticus 18:29, “Therefore anyone who commits any of these abominations must be cut off from among his people.”
